SPOTLIGHT: P.S. 156 / Uncommon Schools
Brooklyn | District 19
As part of Robin Hood’s district-charter partnership initiative, Uncommon Schools worked closely with P.S. 156 to strengthen early literacy instruction. Over the course of the 2021-22 school year, Uncommon’s team led a series of workshops focused on foundational reading routines and provided embedded coaching to help teachers implement these practices in real time.
Results were encouraging: g 93% of participating teachers reported student growth in reading g 86% said the professional learning improved their own instruction
This kind of targeted, sustained support was one of the early signals that district-charter collaboration — when anchored in shared goals and real classroom work — can help improve student outcomes.
